Always hungry and drained!
I don't get cravings for bad foods and I don't eat them. I can live without chips, chocolate, fried food, etc. However, I do struggle with constantly wanting to eat. I feel like my meals only satisfy me for about 45 min. after I eat them, and then I want to start eating again. I eat really high fiber and pretty high…

MFP Total Calorie Intake Reading

Watch calories for the rest of my life?
Does anyone out there feel like they will always have to count calories in order to maintain their weight?

Wii fit accuracy
So I was thinking about how accurate the Wii Fit is as far as the weight is concerned. I have a scale in the bathroom and it would say one thing and then I would get on the Wii Fit and it would be 10 pounds less. I want the most accurate one so what should I do. Anyone?

Infuriated and Relieved
History: Sitting at 250 lbs at 5'3''. Got this way due to a getting older, a bad diet and birth control (the shot and then the hormonal implant.)

If you do happen to be tempted...
by buying biscuits, when you get home break them into halves and put into an air-tight container, so when you do find your self reaching for the biscuits and get munching you'll probably eat half the amount you usually would. Hope this advice helps you biscuit lovers! :flowerforyou:
